Cache converters no longer work after v2166 patch

Cache converters no longer work after v2166 patch, they all come up with runtime error 53, anyone else had this since patch number 2 was applied

Mine still works, but then I wrote it, its not fancy just does the job it was intended to do, for both UT & UT2K3 Cache conversion

If you wish to have a look at it, :withstupid: it is FREEWARE no obligations - :gimmehead: here is a link - Cache Converter 365kb ZIP Archive (http://www.a2e1fxn.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/cachecleaner2.zip)[/url]

I just checked mine 'UT2003 Cache Manager' and lo and behold it states that it was unable to rename the file. the cache files themselves are not read only, so the problem lies elsewhere.

Found this blurb from authors website

Attention: With the release of the 2166 patch UT2K3 cache files are saved with a "-1" on the end of the cache filename. (The ungodly long string of letters and numbers that are assigned by UT2K3 when you download a file from a game server.) However this (the "-1") is NOT on the file name in the cache.ini file which tends to screw up the cache manager. I am waiting on word from Infogames or Epic as to whether this is intended or not. Depending on what they say I will either make a workaround or permanently modify the cache manager code to account for this.

Well I have fixed my version, as "Slack" stated the Patch 2166 has altered the filenames in the Cache folder to have -1 appended to the 32byte MD5 String

I have made my program check for the -1 and take the appropiate action if it is found, otherwise it will function as normal, this is to maintain compatibility with Unreal Tournament as well as UT2003
